Sorry he got caught is what he is. He called his crimes "immature." Yeah, like most 14 year olds are running dog fighting rings. He still has not said that what he did was sick, repulsive and disgusting, which tells me that he's not really sorry.
Rutledge, I grew up in a very rural setting. My dog had the run of 2/3 acre plus a huge field (5 or 6 acres) next to our house. Nobody I know of abused their animals. And I've never met anyone who puts their dog in a purse as a fashion accessory. You are confusing celebrities with the real people again. You watch too much TV.

Vick was sentenced to 23 months in prison which was a half year longer than the prosecution asked for. It is also in keeping with sentences for similar offenders. Most people who have an opinion seem to have been hoping for something on the order of 5 days in the electric chair, but the sentence he got was neither too harsh or too lenient.
